IT WILL BE TELEVISED RIGHT HERE
ON CHANNEL 4, AND WE HAVE A
PREGAME SHOW LEADING UP TO
KICKOFF.
PRACTICE ROUNDS CONTINUE
TODAY FOR THE RYDER CUP IN
CHASKA.
YOU SEE PHIL MICKELSON,
JORDAN SPIETH, DUSTIN JOHNSON.
YOU SEE TIGER WOODS IN THE
PICTURE THERE, AS WELL.
HE'S NOT PLAYING ON THE TEAM
TO THE.
HE'S NOT.
HE'S HERE AS AN ASSISTANT
CAPTAIN.
ALI LUCIA IS LIVE AT HAZELTINE
WITH WHAT TIGER WILL ADD TO
TEAM ISA.
I SPACE HIS MAIN JOB WAS POSING
FOR THAT -- I SUPPOSE HIS MAIN
JOB WAS POSING FOR THAT
PICTURE, ALI.
Reporter: THAT'S RIGHT,
JASON.
ALTHOUGH HE DOES HAVE A LOT OF
EXPERIENCE PLAYING HERE AT
HAZELTINE.
LET'S GIVE YOU A LITTLE TIGER
WOODS HISTORY LESSON OUT HERE
IN CHASKA.
I WANT TO TAKE YOU FIRST TO
2002.
TIGER WOODS GOLFED IN 2002 AT
THE PGA CHAMPIONSHIP.
ONE OF THE GREATEST SHOTS EVER
WAS ON THIS SHOT HERE.
HE CLOSED OUT THE SECOND ROUND
ON A BIRDIE.
HE BIRDIED THE FINAL FOUR HOLES
ON THE FINAL DAY, BUT THAT
STILL WASN'T ENOUGH TO WIN THE
TOURNAMENT.
AND THEN WAS A SECOND PLACE
FINISH ONCE AGAIN FOR WOODS.
YANG BEAT WOODS.
IT'S YANGS'S ONLY MAJOR WIN.
UNTIL NAIL ONE TO 90, HE HAD
NEVER LOST A TOURNAMENT ON
AMERICAN SOIL WITH A LEAD GOING
INTO THE FINAL DAY.
WE HAVE A SHOT OF HIM WEARING
THE VEST YESTERDAY IN RED AND
BLUE, AND OF COURSE SMILING FOR
THE PHOTOS.
DAVIS LOVE III, THE TEAM'S
CAPTAIN SAID IT'S NOT JUST
ABOUT TIGER'S LEADERSHIP, BUT
REALLY ALL OF THE LEADERSHIP
THEY HAVE FOR THEIR CAN'T WERES
AND ASSISTANT CAPTAINS.
ASSISTANT CAPTAINS, WE
NEEDED SOME FORMER CAPTAIN
EXPERIENCE, AND SOME FUTURE
CAPTAIN EXPERIENCE.
OBVIOUSLY BUBBA ROUNDS THAT
OUT, MAJOR CHAMPIONSHIP
EXPERIENCE, RYDER CUP
EXPERIENCE ON OUR SLIDE.
WE HAVE A GREAT MIX OF GUYS
THAT THINK DIFFERENTLY,
OBVIOUSLY.
I SAID IT LAST WEEK.
YOU COULDN'T PUT FIVE GUYS
TOGETHER THAT WERE REALLY THAT
DIFFERENT OF A PERSONALITIES
THAT GET ALONE VERY WELL, AND
NOW WE HAVE BUBBA, SO WE HAVE
SIX RED CARTS OUT THERE, AND
EVERYBODY IS LOOKING AT IT A
LITTLE BIT DIFFERENTLY.
YOU BETTER BELIEVE THERE
WILL BE A CROWD AROUND TIGER
WHEN HE'S OUT ON THOSE CARTS.
IT'S FUNNY HOW YOU TALK TO A
LOT OF PEOPLE, AND THEY SAY
THEY ARE JUST EXCITED TO SEE
HIM OUT ON THE CART, INSTEAD OF
SEEING SOME OF THE GOLFERS
ACTUALLY GOLFING IN THE
TOURNAMENT.
A LOT OF THE YOUNG GUYS LOOK UP
TO TIGER, SO SOME SAY HE IS
GOING TO HAVE A BIG IMPACT IN
TERMS OF LEADERSHIP OUT HERE.
RORY McILROY WON THE FEDEX
CUP THIS LAST WEEKEND.
WHAT DID HE SAY IT'S LIKE TO
PLAY IN THE RYDER CUP NOT FOR
MONEY THIS WEEK?
Reporter: WELL, HE DID WIN
$10 MILLION FOR THE FEDEX CUP,
SO HE DOESN'T REALLY NEED MONEY
RIGHT NOW.
BUT RORY DOES LOOK UP THEIR
CAPTAIN, DARREN CLARKE.
HE HAS KNOWN HIM SINCE HE WAS
10 YEARS OLD.
THE FEDEX CHAMP IS ALSO FOUR-
TIME MAJOR CHAMP, AND THERE
CERTAINLY BE CALLED PHONE LEAD
THE WAY FOR THE TEAM FROM
ACROSS THE ATLANTIC.
IT'S AN EXPERIENCE THAT WE
DON'T GET ANY OTHER TIME OF THE
GOLFING YEAR.
YOU KNOW, WE SORT OF WAIT ONCE
EVERY TWO YEARS FOR A MOMENT
LIKE THAT, WHERE YOU GET ON THE
FIRST TEE, LIKE IT'S GOING TO
BE A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT THAN
LAST TIME.
IT'S GOING TO BE A SEA OF RED
OUT THERE, AND WE'RE OBVIOUSLY
THE AWAY TEAM, THE UNDERDOG, SO
IT WILL BE A LITTLE BIT OF A
DIFFERENT VIBE FOR ONCE BUT, AT
THE SAME TIME, IT'S A GREAT
RUSH.
Reporter: EUROPE HAS BEEN
DOMINANT IN THIS TOURNAMENT.
AND YOU GUYS KNOW WE HAVE
TIGER, AND WE HAVE RORY, SO I
THOUGHT I WOULD PLAY YOU SOME
KATY PERRY THIS MORNING TO GET
YOU IN THE MOOD.
IS ITTH THE EYE OF THE TIGER,
OR ARE WE GOING TO HEAR THE
CROWD ROAR FOR RORY?
VERY NICE, ALI.
WE ARE GOING TO WORK TO GET A
SPLIT SCREEN GRAPHIC TO SHOW
YOUR DIFFERENT WARDROBE CHOICES
THIS WEEK.
WEAPON WENT FROM A LIGHT BALL
CAP AND JACKET TO TODAY YOU'RE
ALMOST READY --
Reporter: I COULD PROBABLY
TAKE OFF THE HAT SUSPECT IS
THAT BETTER?
IT ALL LOOKS GOOD EITHER WAY.
WE JUST WANT YOU TO BE
COMFORTABLE.
Reporter: HEY, IT'S KIND OF
CHILLY OUT HERE.
ALL RIGHT.
I'M JUST TRYING TO STAY WARM.
